Conceptualizations of well-being in adults with visual impairment: A scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Despite its ubiquity, it is often not clear what organizations and services mean by well-being. Visual impairment (VI) has been associated with poorer well-being and well-being has become a key outcome for support and services for adults living with VI. A shared understanding of what well-being means is therefore essential to enable assessment of well-being and cross-service provision of well-being support.

Objectives

To provide an overview of the ways in which well-being has been conceptualized in research relating to adults living with VI.

Eligibility criteria

Articles were included in the review if the article discussed well-being in the context of adults living with VI, was available in English and as a full text.
